The world have been running out of cheap labour for a century.

The era of women having 10 children, thereby overpopulating all societies, necessitating the young males being put in the armies and sent to the borders to try to take over from neighbouring overpopulated tribes and conducting genocide against opposing males is over.

It has been going on since our chimpoid era a million years ago.

The faster we run out of cheap humans the better I'll like it.

It's much better when people are worth a lot of money each. Such as in Switzerland and Luxembourg.

Yes, pay rates would be bid up. Machines would increasingly be hired to do the work as the price of people goes past the cost of machines.

If you run out of the big pool of labor? Then companies start promoting people due to demographics since the pool dried up.
Workers feeling they can get a salary that provides then with a decent livelyhood will slow down and won't work and learn hard.

Sensing that, Sudanese, Rwandan and Khazaks see a huge premium in working hard and learn hard and star, illegally, immigrating to those countries to do any kind of work. They do so in the hope that their offspring have better education and grow up ro be rich workers too.
